John Drumin sworn Live at No. 110 Fowler street; saw the- light upon tne engine, and waited for the engine to pass; saw a man cross ing the east sidewalk at Seventeenth and Willow streets; I went into Whitney's shop and told them that the man must have been killed; I heard no whistle, but I did hear a bell; saw no light on the lront part of the tender; this was near the crossing: the engine was going so fast that I was afraid to cross until it had got by. Peter Keenan sworn Live in Myer'a court, near Fifteenth, below Vine; am signal man at Bevcnteenth and Willow: 1 didn't see the de ceased; the first 1 heard was that some one shouted he had fallen in lront of the engine; 1 cat:'i say whether there was a light on the tender or not; don't kuow the regulations in that respect. i.'eorpe Zimmerman, No. 1024 Willow street, testiEed Was returning from work nt Seven teenth and Willow streets; heara somebody hallo to the engineer to stop; we found Paiter kon's body under the tank; the eneiue was point' very slowly; can't fay whether there was a Ihiht or not.

'lhi association held its regular stated meet ing last light at .their hall, in th Athenn utn Building, coiner ol tixth and Adelphi streets, Dr. Benjamin . II. Coates, Vice-President, in the chair, wi.o, after calling the mcting to order, announced that the Corresponding Secre tary, Coloi.el .lames Ross Snowden, would resd the address which he had prepared and de livered by iequel ol the members ot the Society upon the. Crf'CHsion of tne dedication ot fi monu ment erected by the Commonwealth of Pennsyl vania to Complanter, the noted Chief of the Six Nations ol Indians, at Vennesedaga, Warren county, on the 18th ot October hist. Colonel Snowilen then read a lengthy and in teresting address, comprising a complete biogia phy of ihe lire and character of Cornnlanter, which was Interspersed with many character istic anecdotes, and throughout highly eulo gistic ot that preai chief. Cornplantcr had learned trom observation as well as exierience, the influence aud power of the whites; aDd, an able statesman and lriend of bis race, he yielded to the superior force, and endeavored to preserve the existence of his family and nation by securing to his people land and other property where they would not be disturbed by the encroachments ol the whites. It is a noticeable tact, and highly illustrative of his iar-seeing policy, that in the treaties in which he took part as a chief or representative of his tribe, he declined to stipulate for or re ceive goods or money, but aked lor well-defined boundaries to their terrporles, or lor title in lee simple for h'mself and bis brethren. He bad the sugncity to perceive that it bis nation and people depended upon mere hunters' right to ronm over a section of country, they would be driven, like other Indian tribes, lrom plpce to place, and nt length be exterminated, or removed to distant lands where they would be regarded as new coiners, and be oppressed or destroyed by the Indians who had a prior claim to the territory. Atter giving an exhaustive account of the Indian League, or Conlcdcracy, known origi nally as the Five Nations, called by the French Iroquois, and afterwards known as the Klx Na tions, of which the tribe of Cornplantcr the Senecus was the most numerous and powerful, the lecturer leferred to the prediction of Gov ernor DeWitt Clinton, in his address before the Historical Society ot New York, December 10, 1611, in which hesaid:---"Theministerof destruc tion is hovering over them, and before the pass sing away of the present generation not a single Iioquois will be seen in this State." Tnis sad picture, although true to some ex tent, was somewhat overdrawn in consequence ot the agitations and disputes which preceded tin: war with England, in 1812, the Indian tribes being divided on thai question, some of them taking up the hatchet for Knpland. and others, among whom were the Six" Nations, for the Lnitcd States. But Governor Clinton's pro phecy has utterly failed. The influence and example ot Cornplanter, aided by other go.id men, white as well as red, leading their people to agriculture and habns of industry and tem perance has saved fiom destruction" a remnant of the biave and once powerful nation who lived on the rivers and lakes, and peopled the land both lar and near. Those who knew Cornplantcr nersouallv had the highest regard for niui s a living example ot integrity, truthfulness, purity, temperance, fatherly affection tor his tribe and race, aud a generous hospitality to all. He possessed the universal atlection and veneration of nis tribe, and all who knew him. He died at his Indian village, near Franklin, Pa., on the 18th ol Feb ruary, 18o6, aged about 106 years. Jir. John W. Wallace, in a lew remarks, com plimented Colonel Snowden, ami moved That the thanks of the Society be presented to Colonel J. Ross Snowden for his interesting lecture; and That, nfter he bad made such use of the manu script as be desired, it should bo deposited In the tuchives of the Society. Both these motions were unanimously adopted. Colonel Snowden thanked the Society lor these complimentary resolutions. The Secretary announced the donations to the Society during the past month : To the library, 100 volumes, 318 titles, ro wit: Books, lio volumes; magazines, 20; newspapers, 14; broad sides, 33. Mr. Fales exhibited the original cold medal presented by Congress to Colonel de Fleury for his gallantry ai the storming of Stony Point, July 5, 1779. Mr. Samuel Croft exbib'rtel a painting, very handsomely executed, of the old London Coffee House, erected at the corn ?r of Front and Market streets in the year 1702. Colonel Snowden exhibited the original docu ment, signed by Washington and Jefferson, De cember 217 1700, containing the reply of the President to the speech or "talk" of Corn planter, Half Town, and the great chiefs and counsellors of the Seneca nation of Indians. This is a very ancient writing, on a dressed sheepskin. The Colonel also exhibited a very elegantly engraved copy of this singular document. Also, photographs of Polly Logan and Charles O'Bail, daughter and son ot Cornplantcr. In consequence of the length of the address, much of the usual business was dispensed with. and the n.ecting adjourned near 10 o'clock. Formal Opening of Liberty Hall. The formal opening of Liberty Hall, in Lom bard streit, oeiow JMgntn, took place last even ing. There was a large attendance, the hail lieing crowded to excess.

He was followed by the Hon. Wil liam D. Kellev, who made an eloquent odJress. Hesaid that a great political victory had been achieved not a victory for the white people of he North alone, out a victory that embraced those befoie him, as well as himself. The colored people ot the North had played no mean part In the contest. They had exorcised the right of suffrage in live ot the Eastern States Wisconsin had given to toe citizens of African descent the same privilege, aud other Western States would soon loilow in the same direc tion. He Lad been elected a member of the Fortieth congress ami ne had yet a session to serve In the Thirty-ninth. At the opening ot the lat session he had the honor to introduce a bill giving the right of sutlrage to colored men ot the District of Colum bia. It had passed tne tiouseoi representatives. and he intended to devote as much ot his time in the next session as could be spared froHi his iu.Moitiint duties in the House, to urge its pas' sage in the Senate. He and his friend Thaddeus Stevens had introduced bills into the House to enable the loyal people of the boutb to establish State Governments. One ot tnese oius ne be lieved would become a law.
